NOW rs THE TIME

To see Niagara in all the beauty of its
winter garb, environed by marvellous
and fantastic forms of ice and snow.
Gigantic icicles form on the overhang-
ing rocks and reach from summit to
base of the tall precipices. The ice
bridge generally extends from the
Horseshoe Fall TO point near the rail
road bridge, lasts generally from two
to three months, and is crossed by
hundreds of foot passengers during
the winter. The ice forming the bridge
is ordinarily from one hundred to one
hundred and fifty feet thick-rising
from fifty to sixty feet above the natu-
raj surface of the river. The tiDge of
the waters from the dark green of sum-
inEr IL -r.ainatiinns- -ohannad- tn yellow
the trees on Goat Island and Prospect
Park, sheathed in glittering mail of
ice, formed and added to by the inces-
sanity rising spray, seem partially bur
led; a mass of quaint and curious crys-
taline forms stand in lieu of the bush
es; the buildings seem to sink under
ponderous coverings of snow and ice I;
the tops of trees and points of rock on
which the dazzling white frost does not
lie stand out in bold contrast. forming
the deep shadows of the enhancing
picture. The whole presents wild,
savage aspect, grand and imposing be-
yond adequate description.
If one can see Niagara but once, it
had better be in winter than in summer
time. The scene is one of peerless
grandeur, worth going hundreds OF
miles to see, and daily excites the en-
thusiastic delight of the MICHIGAN
CENTRAL passengers, who gaze enrap'
ltured upon it from the magnificent
standpoint of Falls View, above and
almost on the brink of the Horse Shoe
Falls.
From this point. says Peck's Sun ed
itorially, ''Ths MICHIGAN CENTRAL
gives its passengers the most beautiful
view to be seen on this earth. There
: may be more beautiful views on some
other earth, but no railroad runs there

As per advertisement and program,

with On impressive prayer by Rev. w.
ii. James. The lecture Of Prof. w. j.
Beal, OF the Agricultural College, on
''the vegetable growths adapted TO
cold climates" was received with great
pleasure and the closest attention by
an audience of about three hundred.
Our time and space will not permit
even an epitome of the lecture or the
several papers presented during the
sessions of Tuesday and the discussions
which were of the greatest interest 10 oil

as solved by DIR. Kedzie. is one of im-
mense magnitude, but like many other

with practical suggestions. Every

interspersed through both evenings by
the Grayling Glee Club in manner al
ways satisfactory to our people, and a
recitation of Cartoons Farmers ex-

on the subject of industrial Educa-

have quietly listened for two hours
more. President Willis then presented
the aims and needs of the Agricultu-
raj College and the demand for an ex'
perimental farm on these lands, which
he prophesied as sure to come.
The institute was a success in every
particular and we have heard nothing
, but words of commendation on every
hand.

Jerry Murphy, the Iowa congress
man who has gained for himself the
title o. "Hennepin" Murphy by his
constant advocacy of the Hennepin
canal project. In commenting upon the
workings of the prohibition law in
Iowa, says that the law itself is respon-
sible for the drunkenness in that state.
According TO Mr.. Murphy, there is
more drunkenness there than in any
state where the citizen is his own arbi-
ter. in matters of conscience and
stomach. While the grog-shops have
been obliterate1, the drug stores
where n man can drop in and get a
dose of ipecac, paregorlc, or some
thing else embroidered with wink
have greatly increased. And the
whisky that Is sold In these drug stores
under variety of aliases is of the
most aboninable character. A whisky
sipper--one that prolongs his series OF
small drlnks-is one Of the most com
plete and degraded kinds of drunk
ards. Iowa is badly broken CONNER
cially by the workings of the pro
hibition law, and that the law should
Increase the number of drunkards Is O
good reason for It's repeal. bay cHs
